Tips for Safe Packing

If you decide not to invest in packing services from Blue Whale for your move, here are a few tips to help you pack safely and efficiently.

• Avoid loading more than 50 pounds into one box.
• Purchase special boxes for dishes, wardrobe items, and other special items.
• Get the right supplies: boxes, bubble wrap, newspaper, tape, pens, tissue, scissors, etc.
• Use strong, securable boxes and containers.
• If you can, pack any AV equipment into its original box. Label your cables and tighten screws before moving.
• Label each box with information on where it should go if it contains fragile items and its loading order.
• Cushion contents with bubble wrap, newspaper, tissues, or even towels and blankets.
• Pack your books tightly in small boxes.
• Pack any medicines in leak-proof containers.
• Clean your rugs and draperies before you move, and keep them in their cleaning wrappings.
• Carry all valuables with you – don’t pack them.
• Set aside prohibited materials: paints, oils, cleaners, chemicals, or any flammable or combustible items.
• Don’t leave empty space in your boxes – stuff them with packing paper or bubble wrap.
• Seal your boxes on the top and the bottom.

Hiring a Packing Service Is Way Easier

Doing your own packing is a route that many people take when they are moving, but it comes with a lot of downsides. You have to spend hours and days organizing your home, decluttering your space and sorting your belongings into your moving piles. And that’s just the beginning – after you do the pre-packing organization process, you actually have to do the packing. From collecting enough materials to organizing your belongings into boxes to taking measures to make sure that your fragile items don’t break along the way, this process can be seriously strenuous. Plus, packing involves a lot of specialized knowledge. Making one mistake can lead to packing catastrophe, such as busted boxes or cracked dishes – on top of moving to a whole new home, this process just adds to your stress and anxiety.

However, hiring a packing service can get rid of all of this stress. Blue Whale Moving Company will handle all of your packing needs from start to finish. Trusting Blue Whale to handle your packing services can provide you with a number of great benefits.
